Dan Skelton targets bogey track as rivals jockey for Scottish Grand National glory

• Champion-in-waiting can extend his prize money record

• He has had a winner at 39 of 41 jumps tracks this season

Dan Skelton is already certain to be crowned the UK’s champion trainer over jumps for the first time this season, but still has a few remaining targets in the final days of what is already a record-breaking campaign.

Skelton became the first trainer to reach £4m in prize money in a British jumps season less than a month ago, and will send five runners on the 320-mile trip to Ayr on Saturday as he looks to make a big dent in the £200,000 required to pass £5m.
